Product Description

Many people are uncomfortable with the way in which leadership has been exercised within Christianity, and in this book Nicholas King looks at what the Bible tells us about the exercise of authority. The message is that human beings, with the exception of Jesus, always get it wrong, unless they are prepared to 'lead by listening' or exercise authority as an act of loving service. For the only absolute authority is God. Why speak of 'the helplessness of God'? Because God is voluntarily dependent on our response, helpless until we make our decision, and will not force us to choose our own good. God's love is never tyrannical, always utterly respectful of human freedom. That must be the way ahead for authority in the Church.
